We drop the TX power limits by half (i.e. 3 dB) when TPC is required on account of not supporting TPC. I'll reply below about individual changes instead of in the patch. Unfortunately the documents linked to didn't translate well for me. > Here's what I'm getting from the CRC's EU-harmonized frequency > list[1]: > > WDTS 2400-2483.5 MHz > 100 mW maximum e.i.r.p. > 10 mW/MHz maximum e.i.r.p. spectral density This is the same as what's already in the database. Your change just converts the eirp from dBm to mW, which isn't really of any benefit. > WAS/RLANs 5470-5725 MHz > 1 W maximum mean e.i.r.p. > 50 mW/MHz maximum spectral density of the mean e.i.r.p. > Comment: The devices must use TPC that ensures average reduction > of 3 dB of the maximum transmit power of the system.

This explains the 3 dB attenuation in the database ;-) So we need to cut the eirp in your patch in half, and at that point all you've done is again to convert it to mW. > WAS/RLANs 5150-5250 MHz > 200 mW maximum mean e.i.r.p. > 10 mW/MHz maximum spectral density of the mean e.i.r.p. If this range doesn't require TPC then it could be bumped up to 200 mW (23 dBm). > WAS/RLANs 5250-5350 MHz > 200 mW maximum mean e.i.r.p. > 10 mW/MHz maximum spectral density of the mean e.i.r.p. > Comment: The devices must use TPC that ensures average reduction > of 3 dB of the maximum transmit power of the system.

Again, we need to keep the 3 dB drop so the value in the database is already correct. > Second, the CRC mandates that the 60 GHz RLAN frequencies are > only for indoor use. If that's the case then adding NO-OUTDOOR does seem appropriate. You didn't mention 5725-5875 MHz here, but once again your change there is only converting from dBm to mW. So in sum, the only changes which should probably be made are to 1) bump the power limit for 5150-5250 MHz to 23 dBm and 2) to add NO-OUTDOOR to the 57000-66000 MHz rule.
